Yeah so renting storage sucks the ****. We decided to build our own shed. Keep in mind ive never swung a hammer in my life. So here we go...

Found some pallets. If they are strong enough to hold a fridge, surely they would work as a floor for th shed?






This one was a bit warped...



I am short. Wes is tall.




Un-warping the pallets.


Laying out some moisture barrier plastic.


Joseph started the front and rear wall frames today.





Yeah its not perfect. Im just gonna store ---- in it so who gives a ----.

LilWayne

Thats cool

Is this the shed you were telling me about last night, or the night before or whenever the ---- it was? Looks ****, good progress. I still see snow on the ground, props for you guys getting off your asses and building that. I was going to go back to working on wetsanding the car today but vag'd out due to the weather. Nice work

shouldve used walminized for the bottom of the frame

WHAT THE ---- IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN, -------??



Seriously, though. Hitchhikkr stated he has never swung a hammer at a nail before, and my carpentry experience is three weeks on a framing crew 12 years ago - I quit when we got to the roof and being 15 feet off the ground fucked with me too much, tried to deal for three days until it became apparent I sucked and wouldn't get over it. We wandered around Lowes for ten minutes and didn't see anything rated for exposure to the elements and just grabbed the $8/sheet stuff for the flooring. We'll use the $5/sheet stuff for the walls and roof, since that ---- doesn't get stood on.








Bitch.

holy ---- we found a subject where JD doesn't know everything. who would have guessed it would be something so simple.

Tom-Guy

Clue up, ******. There's a lot of stuff I don't know, I only seem like I do because I only talk about what I do know. Just because you don't exercise a similar conversational tact is a reflection on how you halfass things... take Scott's car, you got 310 whp where I know damn well I could get 311. YOU ARE A JOKE.







Everyone knows I'm drunk and joking, right? Tom ain't no sippin' tea.

sewell94

What the hell does sippin' tea mean?? i'm just a midwest loser w/o a clue.

Use 3/4" sheathing for the floor, single layer, stager the joints when possible. Use 1/2" OSB to wrap the walls, 5/8 OSB for the roof if you do 16" centers it's safe. They make a coating you can put on OSB to seal it from the weather. It's thick green paint ----. It last for YEARS. Very good ----.

I would seriously redo the foundation though. If anything get some torn bags of concrete at lowes for 80% off retail, some cheap treated 4x4's, and some 2x8's for floor joices and build something that won't fall over.

J. G. Thirwell is Australian, ask him.






lol wut?


I understood the rest. It's OSB on the flooring, FWIW.
